So.... I recently started making youtube videos again, but I am getting almost no views on each video (1 - 2)...

I hate to ask but would anyone mind dropping by my channel and if you like what you see, watching my videos?

I post about 2 - 3 gameplay coms a week and will start adding in some live coms soon.

Thanks!

Hey Reaper

Well done on trying. The videos seems to be higher quality than I expected. Note that you are trying to move in a very very crowded environment, and there are so many FPS game videos (Battlefield 3 and COD the primary focus). For this reason it going to be easy to get lost in the heard.

So a couple of things you can try: Make things interesting and original. If I'm going to use what little free time and/or cap I have, I want to watch something that will entertain me. Make videos that nobody has seen. It much easier to say than do I know.

Also, good idea on asking for help here. Might I suggest getting more involved in the forum. Let the guys and girls get to know you, and they will be more inclined to watch and subscribe to your channel.

And get yourself more out there!! If you want to host a successful Youtube channel, you have to market yourself much more. You don't have to spend any money, which is the beauty of Youtube and the internet.

All in all, I really glad to see South Africans trying. I'm following a couple of international channels and watch their videos quite often.

Not trying to be rude but your videos don't differ from any other gameplay video on YouTube.

That's the biggest problem you have. Doing something different is very, very hard and to start off the channel with a few blackops 2 video's isn't going to get you a million subs! Try to do games that are a bit different!

Looking at a few youtubers with let's say 1 million + subs and reading the comments is a great way of seeing what people like etc.

I'm going to link you to a youtuber that stands out imo

This guy is a great example of doing things differently! If you look at his LP's you'll see he has a distinct sense of humor and uses his own auto tunes to spice up his gameplay and make it more enjoyable!

Find out what games are hot atm. When a new Triple A game releases get it as soon as you can and start doing videos about it!

Make your channel more interactive! Having subs choose which games you want to LP etc. Is way better than choosing yourself! Letting them choose gives you an idea of what they want from your channel!

Unfortunately your voice is a bit weak I don't know if its just your mic or what but it could be problematic! Try boosting your voice audio next time!

Sorry about the long post :P
